Underage Teenage Girls In A Gang Arrested For Brutal Attack On 15-Year-Old In New York (Video)

Several teenage girls from Erasmus High School in Brooklyn,
believed to be apart of the Young Savages street gang, an
offshoot of the Folk Nation street gang in Chicago, have been
arrested over a brutal attack on a young rival in a New York
McDonalds fast food restaurant. 16-year-old Aniah Ferguson
called members of her gang to descend upon a Brooklyn McDonalds
to attack 15-year-old Ariana Taylor. Ferguson accused Taylor of
having written something she disliked on Facebook.

During the confrontation Taylor threw the first punch. Within
seconds, Ferguson and the group of girls swarmed the smaller
Taylor, beating her to a pulp. The girls punched, kicked and
stomped Taylor and ripped out her hair extensions. Ferguson
repeatedly kicked and stomped on Taylor’s head. They lived up to
their gang’s name - savages.

A young Hispanic male was later seen intervening by picking a
battered Taylor up off the floor and placing her on a chair, in
trying to get her away from the violent girls who carried out
the beating with a pack mentality. Even as he moved Taylor away,
who was slipping into unconsciousness, Ferguson still kept
trying to attack her smaller rival, who was limp and visibly
injured.

Ferguson took Taylor’s purse, makeup bag and coat and threw
them in them in a dumpster (garbage/skip) outside the
restaurant. The girls fled the fast food restaurant. Taylor was
hospitalized for her injuries, twice in one week as she
collapsed days after release due to the concussion, broken nose
and various bruises from direct body blows.

The assailants thought that was the end of it. However,
someone had filmed the brutal fight and uploaded it online. As
the video spread on You Tube and social networking, the girls
foolishly tagged themselves, bragging over their fame for the
illegal beating they issued Taylor. Politicians and community leaders in New York began to
condemned the fight and the crowd in the local McDonalds for not
doing anything to break up the fight. Some students cheered on
the lawbreaking juveniles. Some later told the press they did
not want to intervene for fear of being beaten as well.

Police issued a statement ordering the girls involved in the
beating to come forward, as the victim refused to cooperate and
name them as her attackers. One by one police identified,
tracked down and arrested each girl from the fight. The ringleader in the fight, Ferguson, is a young woman with
a rap sheet containing several arrests that include, stabbing
her brother in the arm and being arrested on weapons charges.
The 7-year-old punched her 65-year-old grandmother in the face
twice and scratched up one side of her face.

Days later she bit a police officer, who tried to enforce a
restraining order her grandmother filed after the attack. On
another occasion, a neighbor reported seeing Ferguson’s
grandmother run from the family’s home stating the 16-year-old
was going to, “Burn the house down.” Ferguson was also
previously arrested for assaulting a woman, then biting the
police officer who arrested her.

Ferguson’s violent tendencies, rage issues, fixation on fire
and complete lack of empathy reveal she is a psychopath with
schizophrenic leanings. Ferguson is a danger to the community.
Her repeated arrests also reveal an unwillingness to reform.
Medication and correctional behavior is warranted.
